Lenovo G550 problem during games and warranty

Hello,
I have lenovo G550, it has G210m graphics card with 512Mb memory.I bought it on 5-jan-2010.
From last 2-3 months my laptop suddenly switches off when i play games(after 5-10 min).I thought this was due to dust and overheating so I get it checked on the lenovo service centre, but overheating or dust is not the issue.
1.Is there any chance that graphics card has some problem..if not what could be the issue??
2.I got one year warranty.Can i extend my warranty and how much i have to pay for 1 or 2 year warranty..??
Will the warranty covers all parts..??

first of all, 3000 serie laptops are not designed for games. you should've bought ideapad serie laptops instead of.
but it seems you have some issue with graphic adapter. can you download any application to check temperature?
you can extend your warranty, better to contact lenovo via mail. lenovo will respond your questions about warranty costs.
( make sure you apply before your current warranty expires )

  • Lenovo G550 one key recovery and wi-fi problem

    Hello all,
    I have recently upgraded Vista to Win 7 on my G550 and I have a problem with the wlan connection. I get connected, but there's no internet access, only "limited connectivity". The driver's installed correctly, I've checked each and every setting and cannot find the source of this problem.
    My OneKeyRecovery is not working anymore, I looked at the drivers site and saw there is no Recovery driver for Win 7. How can this be?
    Anyone care to help me, please?

    Could be a problem with the Lenovo ReadyConn-software, as described here:

    Not sure if it applies to w7, but it could be worth a try...

  • Ubuntu 9.10 and Lenovo G550 problem

    Hello,
    I have one Lenovo G550 recently purchased. I've tried to install Ubuntu 9.04 and 9.10, but both OS wouldn't boot. I'm not sure where the problem lies, as I'm Linux newbie and all I get is a dark screen.
    I haven't tried to install it into a partition (because I'm afraid to lose the "one key recovery" software), but I've tried to install it via Wubi and also tried to run its live versions. All of them ends the same way: the LCD is turned on, but shows no image. I've tried to access the terminal (by pressing CTRL+ALT+F1), but nothing happens...
    Do anyone have some idea about what is happening?!
    Thank you.
    Edit: I re-tested version 9.04 with no-acpi and it worked fine.

    Hi
    Tries with Ubuntu 9.04, this works well.
    same thing happened to me. greetings

  • Lenovo G550 problem HDMI - pc overheats

I used another HDMI cable, but the problem persist. The problem occurs with Win 7 and also with Win 8. I have installed the latest version of NVIDIA drivers (306.97). how I can fix it?

    Hi

    Laptop gets overheated and then turns off automatically so I would suggest you to please update the Bios from the below mentioned web link.

  • W500 periodically freezes during games and videos.

    My w500 laptop has been owned since summer of 09. This past fall, my laptop started to freeze in the middle of games and videos, and then speed up to the point where the video or game was suppose to be (ex. Video starts at 0:05, freezes at 0:06, 3 seconds pass and the video jumps to 0:09 in the video). It has been persistent and I sent it for repairs and reimages. I thought it was due to the graphics card and got a new one under a warranty, but the problem still occurs today. Is it a harddrive issue or is there a file I can download to resolve this? Any help would be great.

    Yeah the drivers are updated, I'll try the solutions above and see what happens. Thanks for the suggestions really appreciate it
    Edit: Here's the screenshots. I don't really know what this means can someone interpret please?

  • Problem with game and free space

    I just installed a game, The Sims 2 and everytime I try and play it it says that I need to "free up some space on your local disk and relaunch the Sims 2". However I have 50G free space and sometimes it will load. Does anyone know what I should do?

    Hi sarah, welcome to macbook forum,
    uninstall your sims2, repair permission and optimize your HD using ONYX or machelpmate.
    reinstall your sims2, repair permission.
    Good Luck.

  • HT201272 I'm having problems downloading games and doing updates

    Hiya my IPhone 5 is having problems updating and keeps asking for my apple ID every time I touch I go to use it. Does any one else have this problem?
    Also today my iPad mini will not load updates or let me download new apps, please help as I'm getting really frustrated with both items....... Please help xx

    Are you sure the episodes are downloaded into your iTunes?
    Since iTunes 11, the Podcasts count has shown some, but not all, episodes which are available, even though they are not downloaded into your iTunes. Those episodes also appear in standard black text, whereas before iTunes 11, the count only showed fully downloaded episodes and - if you selected to "show all available episodes", then the additional ones would be greyed out, not full black.
    I started a thread about this, and I think perhaps your issue is related to the one I see. My thread is https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5461425 .
    I have also submitted feedback to Apple about my experience.

  • Problem during export and data

    I have 60GB of mount point OS level but my estimated dumpfile size 150 GB.
    How i will take the back up of the database using Simple export and Datapump utility
    We are using Red hat Linux OS and database version 10.2.0.4
    I am new to oracle .
    Thanks

    >
    Yes, use RMAN for backups. This export won't let you restore everything if your database crashes after an hour your export finished. You would have lost an hour of data. With RMAN, it will take hardly 1/5th of the export time and it is reliable when recovery situation occurs.
    By the way, if you use traditional export (not the datapump), you can use pipe to compress the data as the data gets exported.
